Sir madame has run away again (Lily and Carson) novel Chapter 337

Chapter 337
And it turns out that Eric Walker and Callie are friends?
Aunt Luna didn’t know my thoughts, so she pointed at Eric and said, “The man Callie is talking to is the last of her college, Eric Walker. You must have heard of Eric Walker, right?”
“I’ve heard of him.” I shook my head indiscriminately.
“He always took good care of Callie while she was studying abroad. He is very fond of Callie, so much so that he even offered her a meal when she returned this time. They ate here too, and the wine they ordered back so it was a Château Lafite-Rothschild 1982.” Aunt Luna couldn’t hide her smugness as she said this.
As I listened to their incessant chatter, annoyance rose within me. Don’t tell me the Torres family has fallen so low that they’re even bragging about a 1982 Château Lafite-Rothschild? I smile lightly. “A 1982 Château Lafite-Rothschild is nothing to someone like Eric Walker, is it?”
Aunt Luna didn’t even notice my impatience. “Yes. This is his restaurant, so he can eat whatever he wants.”
I was scared for a moment. “Is this Eric Walker’s restaurant?”
“Yes. Didn’t you know that?” Aunt Luna asked.
“No, just hearing for the first time from you today,” I replied honestly.
“No wonder.” Aunt Luna had an expression that said a lot. “You’ve suffered a lot all these years, Lily. Fortunately, you are now enjoying the fruits of your perseverance. I hear her husband is doing well, and her dad has welcomed her back into the fold too, so good times are just around the corner.”
As we talked, Callie walked over. Tia Luna introduced us, and we both greeted each other with a smile. I examined Callie closely, only to find that she actually looked a little like me, especially when she smiled. While she had a smile on her face, I could tell she didn’t seem to like me, as I didn’t like her either. Sure enough, after some small talk, she asked Aunt Luna, “Mom, let’s go back. Caiden must be eagerly awaiting our return.” Then she gave me a fake smile. “Lily, why don’t you join us?”
“Everything is fine. I already ate and I’m leaving.”
“All is well then. Please excuse us. We’ll talk again next time.”
“See
you next time, Lily,” Aunt Luna said.
I tilted my head and turned away, but then I heard Aunt Luna asking Callie in a low voice, “We don’t have to pay for this meal today, do we?”
“No, Eric said to put it on his bill.”
Hearing this, I couldn’t help but sneer. Things are really going for the dogs. Aren’t they the least bit embarrassed to go say hello to Eric Walker just so they don’t have to pay for the meal? Furthermore, the man himself is deplorable. He didn’t tell me this is his restaurant and feigned ignorance. Is it fun watching me make a fool of myself?
When I saw his jovial expression as he returned to my seat, I felt even more hurt. Eric, however, didn’t notice my anger. “Why have you been gone for so long?” he asked.
“Was I gone too long?” I counterattacked.
“Yes. Look, the food you ordered is now cold.”
“Whatever. Anyway, I don’t want to eat anymore.”
“You really are a waste of ordering so much food and leaving it unfinished. Don’t you know that wasting food is a despicable thing to do?”

Chapter 337
I couldn’t help but mock him, saying, “President Walker, this has nothing to do with you. You’re not the one paying the bill, so why are you feeling bad about it?”
“What is wrong with you that you are so angry?” Eric looked at me with a questioning look.
“Are you still going to eat? If not, I will pay.” My tone was pretty awful when I said that.
